Emblema, un escusón, llameante en orla de Dieciséis llamas y radiante de sesenta y cuatro líneas movientes todo de gules.

Its focus on heraldic art, along with its foundation in 1987, makes it a pioneering institution in this field on a global scale.

The Society of Heraldic Arts enjoys significant international recognition among heraldic artists, designers, and craftsmen, and its website is heraldic-arts.com.

Its members cover the full range of activities within heraldry for individuals, personal heraldry, public and private entities, socioeconomic heraldry, as well as municipalities, regions, etc., governance heraldry.

The Society of Heraldic Arts used to publish a quarterly magazine called «The Heraldic Craftsman», which was sent to all its members, but it is no longer in publication. The Society also provides advice on the correct use of heraldry to enhance corporate and personal identity.

Gules: a warren hound parado statant Or; a base hearty Or.

Gules: a warren hound parado statant Or; a base hearty Or.

Escudo de gules: un podenco parado de oro; la campaña encajada de corazones de oro.

Coat of arms that I have created with: the shield’s shape pointed and rounded; its field painted in flat tint gules; the warren hound and the base hearty are illuminated Or and delineated Sable; and the whole is executed in raised-line drawing.

Symbolism

A base made of generous hearts Or, interlocked with hearts Gules, red as blood, gives its support to a Spanish warren hound standing upon it. They are the hearts of those who love, protect and care for the hounds, intertwined with the hearts of the hounds whose noble heartbeats are evoked in the motto.

The founders of this Spanish warren hound shelter did not wish for a dog armed and langued, since those heraldic attributes would imply that the animal is not truly in need of protection. They preferred instead to highlight the podenco’s loyalty and faithfulness.

Types of lines of division

In English heraldry, ordinary lines of partition such as «almenado» ~ «embattled», «acanalado» ~ «invected», or «angrelado» ~ «engrailed» have well-established names. There is, however, no general rule for blazoning lines formed by repeated and more elaborate figures, such as fir trees, fleurs de lis, or other shapes.

Each case tends to receive a descriptive or newly coined term, such as «sapiné» or «flory» «flory counterflory», in these last two cases depending on whether the figures all point in one direction or alternate upward and downward.

Note that in «sapiné» the charm lies precisely in that alternation: the fir trees point alternately upward and downward, so that the figures interlock with each other.

Therefore, if a new figure appears, such as the heart in this case, with hearts pointing upward, one might say «hearty» or, more specifically, «hearty counterhearty»; but following the example of «sapiné», we shall simply blazon «hearty».

For example, the line formed by dovetail shapes, called «dovetailed» in English, is blazoned in Spanish as «encajada de colas de milano», even changing the name of the bird. Note that in this case they interlock precisely because some point upward and others downward, hence their use in joinery, cabinetry, and related arts.

In Spanish there are classical terms for the most common forms, such as «almenado», «acanalado» or «angrelado», with «encajado» ~ «dancetty» being perhaps the most characteristic, where the angles interlock alternately upward and downward.

When facing new or uncommon shapes, instead of inventing a new term we prefer to use the basic one, «encajado», adding afterwards the specific figure that forms the interlock, for example, «encajado de abetos» ~ «sapiné».

Thus, in this case we blazon «the base hearty», with the hearts alternating upward and downward, just as in the traditional «encajado» the angles alternate both ways.

Gules, two axes addorsed Argent, hafted Or, issuant from the base; overall, at the nombril, an escutcheon Or.

Escudo de gules, dos hachas adosadas de plata, fustadas de oro, movientes de la punta; brochante sobre el todo, en el ombligo, un escudete de oro.

Interpretation I have made with the following characteristics: the escutcheon is semicircular, in the classic Castilian style; its field is illuminated with the tincture gules; its 2 axes and escutcheon are outlined in sable and illuminated with the metal Or, and the axe heads in Argent; and the execution is in a raised line style.

Hafted or shated

The term «hafted» in English is specifically used for weapons with handles, such as axes and hammers. This refers to the part of the weapon where the user grips, which is typically made of wood or metal and is essential for wielding the weapon effectively. The haft is integral to the weapon's function, providing the necessary leverage and control during use.

On the other hand, «shafted» is a term used in English for weapons with a shaft, which is a longer, slender part of the weapon, as seen in spears, arrows, and sometimes in lances. The shaft is usually the primary structural component, providing the length and reach, while also serving as the backbone of the weapon.

In both cases, the term indicates that this part of the weapon is of a different tincture from the rest of the figure.

In Castilian, however, both «hafted» and «shafted» translate to «fustadas», which broadly refers to a similar concept where the handle or shaft is of a different color than the head or blade.

Then, I prefer using «hafted» when referring to axes and hammers due to the specificity of the term in English.

This contrasts with the term «guarnezidas» ~ «hilted», which is used for swords, indicating a different color for the guard or hilt, rather than for the shaft or handle.

Addorsed, back to back

For the arrangement of the axes in relation to each other, the one on the dexter facing dexter, the one on the sinister facing sinister, I use the term «addorsed» as it is the most common, but I previously used «back to back», which is said of «two animals, rampant, with their backs against each other, each facing the opposite flank. Two keys are also described as back to back when they are positioned with the bits outward, each to its side; the same applies to sickles, or scythes and generally to all long objects that have two faces, like two axes...» [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 98], this being the case for the axes in this shield.

«Dalla» is a synonym for «scythe» used in and originating from Aragon and Navarra, [Real Academia Española; 2001].

In the English blazon, «adosadas», «de espaldas», is rendered as «addorsed», from the French «adossé», which is said, for example, when «two animals turned back to back» and some also use «endorsed».

Coat of arms devised by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with an ogee external shape and with a leather finish.

Coat of arms of Promet Restoration, Seattle, Washington, USA. It is a company founded and owned by the Promet family. This coat of arms has been designed by Dakota Promet and me, and emblazoned by me.

Design rationale

Promet Restoration is company devoted to the preservation and restoration of fine pianos, antique furniture, and historic wooden artefacts, prometrestoration.com. Founded in San Francisco in 1989 by Tynis Promet, and later established in Seattle, the company continues a family tradition that began in 1983 at the National Maritime Museum in Tallinn, Estonia, under the mentorship of Ülo Ots, son of the renowned opera singer Georg Ots. Over the decades, Promet Restoration has restored more than four hundred Steinway pianos and countless heirloom pieces, upholding the mission «To preserve the heirlooms for generations to come». The arms of the company derive from those of the Promet family, simplified and adapted for corporate use. They retain the Estonian heraldic inspiration and the distinctive dovetailed base, a reference to the woodworking joint symbolising precision, craftsmanship, and enduring quality, the very principles upon which the company was founded. The family motto «Per Aspera ad Astra» gives way here to the corporate motto «Quality & Integrity · Est. 1989», expressing the firm’s professional ethos and artistic dedication.

Royal Association of Hidalgos of Spain

Emblema de la Real Asociación de Hidalgos de España

The Royal Association of Hidalgos of Spain was founded under the name «Asociación de Hidalgos, Infanzones y Noblezas a Fuero de España» by Vicente and Francisco de Cadenas y Vicent, the Marquises of Siete Iglesias and of Zayas, and also by Valentín Dávila Jalón, Marquis of Dávila.

This association brings together nobles of Spanish lineages with the aim of maintaining and promoting the traditional values of the hidalguía and is inspired by the principles of Christian humanism. It fulfills its duty to provide services to Spain, its institutions and its citizens, with loyalty to the Crown and commitment to Spanish culture and history.

Its magazine Hidalgos, also known as «La Gacetilla de Hidalgos de España», or simply «La Gacetilla», as this was its name until the end of 2010, precisely until its issue 524 of October, November and December 2010. This magazine is an excellent source of knowledge and information, and some of its articles are cited throughout Blason.es, for example, those by [Valero de Bernabé, L.; 2009b], [Valero de Bernabé, L.; 2010] and [Valero de Bernabé, L.; 2012b].

In saltire arrangements, I prefer to place the element in bend over the element in bend sinister, since the bend takes precedence over the bend sinister. Therefore, in my interpretation of this coat of arms and unlike other interpretations, the two-handed sword placed in bend is drawn above the one placed in bend sinister.

Royal Council of the Orders of Chivalry

Royal Council of the Orders of Chivalry

In 1523, the Order of Santiago, the Order of Calatrava, and the Order of Alcantara were definitively incorporated into the Crown of Castile, which marked the consolidation of the Royal Council of the Orders of Chivalry of Santiago, Calatrava, Alcantara, and Montesa. However, it is known that this Royal Council already existed at the beginning of the same 16th century, or even earlier, although there are no foundational documents available to date its inception.

The internet address of its website is ordenesmilitares.es where it also hosts the pages dedicated to each of its four orders:

After the Crusades ended and following the model of the military orders created in the Holy Land, European kings established Orders of Chivalry, many of which were military and religious institutions, like the four grouped under this Royal Council.

Escudo de plata, un crisol de plata, llameante y sumado a una hoguera de gules y oro. Timbrado de una corona real cerrada. Lema: «Limpia, fixa, y da esplendor» de oro sobre una filacteria de azur.

Interpretation made from the Royal Academy emblem: transforming it into a semicircular-based shield, instead of its oval shape; with its motto on a scroll beneath the base, instead of surrounding it; keeping the closed royal crown in its place; with everything illuminated except the field which is in plain color; and the whole outlined in sable and with a parchment-like finish.

In this interpretation, on the Argent field, the Gules fire of the bonfire completely surrounds the Argent crucible, to avoid the metal Argent on the same.

To write the blazon for this coat of arms I use the heraldic term «llameante». Therefore, I do not follow [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 82 and figure 163] when he writes «...y un Fénix de gules sobre una hoguera encendida de lo mismo.». He uses this example to illustrate the 2 fundamental uses of the term «encendido» which is said when «the Eyes of animals... are of a different color» and «also of a burning Bush and the same for a Torch, when the flame is of a different tincture».

Socioeconomic heraldry

Within socioeconomic heraldry, I classify the arms of all collectives not included in the previous categories, such as, for example, commercial societies, which may represent companies, their brands, and products, sports clubs and federations, associations, professional colleges, educational institutions, arms granted or assumed collectively, etc.

For example, the coats of arms of universities, both private and public, belong to this category, the former naturally and the latter considering their appropriate autonomy from state powers. In this way, the coat of arms of the IESE, as a business school, is an example of socioeconomic heraldry.

Also included are the coats of arms of associations, like the Norsk Heraldisk Forening, and of companies, such as the arms of Alea Capital.

This category partially coincides with what [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 1975; page 119] refers to as «representative heraldry».

Coat of arms interpreted with the following characteristics: the shape of its shield is semicircular; the field is a flat tint of Azure; the two thistles and the saltire are illuminated of the metal Argent and outlined in Sable; the inescutcheon is illuminated of the colour Gules and, also, outlined in Sable; and the whole with a mother-of-pearl finish with a raised stroke.

Inescutcheon ~ escusón

The English term «inescutcheon» corresponds to our Spanish term «escusón». It is called an inescutcheon when there is only one and it is placed in the abyss of the shield.

Escutcheon ~ escudete

The English term «escutcheon» corresponds to our Spanish term «escudete». It is used when there are several, for example, 3. Although in this case there is only one, this is the term used in the official blazon of this coat of arms, as will be seen below.

Thistle ~ cardo

This coat of arms of The Heraldry Society of Scotland was registered and granted ~ «granted» on 7th September 1977, by «The Court of the Lord Lyon», which is the official college of arms for Scotland, lyon-court.com, with the following blazon: «Azure, on a saltire argent between two thistles slipped argent, one in chief and one in base, an escutcheon gules» and it contains 2 thistles, which is the national flower of Scotland, and a saltire Argent on an Azure field, like the flag of Scotland.

Slipped ~ nurido

The usual way of representing the thistle ~ «thistle» in Castile is with its roots visible, it is called «arrancado». In this case the stem is cut and its roots are not visible, it is called «slipped» ~ «nurido».
